    Afloat on the Ohio-Reuben Gold Thwaites
    Nov 6 2026
    Afloat on the Ohio by Reuben Gold Thwaites.

    Afloat on the Ohio, An Historical Pilgrimage, of a Thousand Miles in a Skiff, From Redstone to Cairo. There were four of us pilgrims—my Wife, our Boy of ten and a half years, the Doctor, and I. My object in going—the others went for the outing—was to gather "local color" for work in Western history. The Ohio River was an important factor in the development of the West. I wished to know the great waterway intimately in its various phases,—to see with my own eyes what the borderers saw; in imagination, to redress the pioneer stage, and repeople it.

    Historic Waterways-Reuben Gold Thwaites
    Nov 5 2026
    Historic Waterways by Reuben Gold Thwaites.

    Historic Waterways, Six Hundred Miles of Canoeing down the Rock, Fox and Wisconsin Rivers. This volume is the record of six hundred miles of canoeing experiences on historic waterways in Wisconsin and Illinois during the summer of 1887. There has been no attempt at exaggeration, to color its homely incidents, or to picture charms where none exist. If it may induce others to undertake similar excursions, and thus increase the little navy of healthy and self-satisfied canoeists, the object of the publication will have been attained.
